huh. i loved the movie but i don’t remember him in it. now i’m wondering if i watched it in a language other than english (my first choice would have been vietnamese but that’s just because i don’t think i’ve watched any movies made by the vietnam film industry. I should fix that next week) with subtitles on, simply to have the audio’s aesthetic match the video’s.

i want to note for the nonfinancial types: that’s profit, not revenue. profit is what you have left of your revenues after your costs.

Any picture that makes any profit (and that profit can be someone buying you tacos once because they liked your film on youtube, so long as they’ve bought you enough tacos) is a success.

Hell, any film that gets a screening outside the filmmakers’ social circles is a success. That means someone liked it enough to share it. Have I moved the goalposts enough that I can consider myself a film success because I do, I’m just playing badminton rather than football.

breaking even with stop motion is laudable. because like we won awards with our films but i think we earned like 5 grand total. we spent way more than that over the years on tacos for the crew alone.

i was trying to forget the Will Vinton fiasco. I had a friend there.

yeah, the

reminiscent of how artists previously would be financially supported by wealthy benefactors.

i need to find myself a wealthy benefactor who likes [music form not appreciated outside one town in the eastern US and i like where i live dammit]

wait what.

oh whew i thought you were talking about my buddy who used to be at Will Vinton. he’s not rich.

I like the gunpowder fuses because there is no question whether they are good or not. Exploded = bad, not exploded = good

Also that reusable fuse would have been so useful in my 1989 Nissan

Is your name Breaker Breaking Pantsless because I have been looking for you with an idea for a circus act

prooper speling is for the somenoen else

mods please. it is giving me gas.

The moment software comes in, much easier to lock people in.

i’m almost with you (and i get the point you’re making) but my little shitbox from the 80s that i love, she had a tiny computer under the seat. i think it managed the lights and emission system or something.

Because it’s your dad I’m assuming French language and not French kissing because ew.

Also i am a few frescas decades deep but I think ours was a 280z. Think. It was the car dad wanted to use to pick up chicks but only the coquerelles were interested

i’m not familiar with these dudes but from these photos it looks like plans to build your own tractor out of parts from the hardware store (if you buy an engine from OSE of course) and this is the base frame that you can then add the accessories to and make it the tractor you need. i mean all i am seeing is tractor frame, no tractor body.

We had an excellently maintained late datsun z. Of course my idiot brother burns out the transmission doing idiot things in the late 90s and that totals her. Our mechanic bought it from us and i still see her around town.

I should’ve just learned how to fix the damn thing myself, but they do have some nice safety features (like the “hey, someone is in your blind spot, dipshit” light so i can tell at a glance they’re in my blind spot instead of having to turn and stare them down). i really need to finish learning how to weld and solder and i bet i could just build that damn car out of a kit.

so the squeezening of tech into vehicles seemed to happen at right the same time engine compartments stopped having enough room to change the headlights without having to bust out a cherry picker. at least from the “i can fix a carburetor but maybe not a self parking system why does my grain thresher have one of those anyways” perspective over here.

Wait no. I wanted it to be an open and proud drag queen, not another JD Vance/Nguyen Van Thok/Kitara Ravache

Oh well law dih daw

Dude that’s not cool phones have just as much right as you and me to get married now that they’re all chatbots

Is that the deep? Did a season I don’t know about come out?

You would oscillate the nozzle
